6/6/2007 About 40 hours ago, caller was handling a box with some containers of Lorsban inside. He didn't realize that a couple of the jugs inside were leaking. He thinks that the leaked from around the closure but he is not sure. He got some of the pesticide on his pants but didn't realize it at the time. He used the Lorsban up that was in the jugs then came in to shower when he noticed that a small area on his leg was tingling. He took a shower and the tingling went away quickly. Follow-up on 6/11/2007 Patient confirms that he remained symptom free and experienced no other problems after taking a shower.
